Spin has some more details about the impending release. I haven't bought any Megaforce records since early Metallica / Anthrax stuff which was joint released by major labels. We'll see if HR can behave himself better than in the last time out...

Lorbering Hat trick! (I guess that is a good indication that no one besides me gives a flying f____ but oh well, I am bored and will post anyhoo:) Official Site says April, but I am more inclined to believe May / June from other sources I have seen. If anyone is motivated enough, this link provides an mp3 track of a small snippet of one of Henry Rollins's (G lib is going to shoot me in the FACE!) most recent radio broadcasts from LA that features a cut from the album...

Thanks to Epoisses and the wonderful application sendspace (Bowie Immersion, anyone?) here is the ninth track from the Megaforce records album Build a Nation from the MF'ing Bad Brains called 'Universal Peace' (I left the Rollins intro / outro on for context) Lemme know what you think. I like the fast buzzing bass - its at least as good on one listen as anything post 1988, but I know that's not saying much. Time and a few more listens will tell.

I like the track. Not landmark, but solid. Spin has just posted the full tracklisting.

This thread is still 100% me - Dear DÜ: Here is the new artwork! DÜ: Oh goody, thanks DÜ! DIY : DÜ it yourself!

I'm ruining your streak here, but this comment made me breathe a lungful of coffee.

I'm glad you did it and not me, G lib! Adorable post, DU. Almost Hurley-esque. And I love Hurley.

The Vinyl looks pretty kick ass: Hurley ALWAYS saves the day. and then Sawyer comes back to say "This is for taking The Kid Off the Raft" and fires his gun at Mr. Friendly. A+

Sweet Jesus, the artwork is fantastic!

I could be wrong, but in addition to MCA producing this, I think the 'Oscilloscope' production company has something to with the Beastie Boys a la Grand Royal or something...

New record does not suck at all. Best since Quickness in 1988. Reccomended if you like the Bad Brains. If you don't you may / may not like it.

Pitchfork even almost gave it a seven. The parts about the vocal effects being kind of ponderous are spot on. I would have hoped for a bit of less murky production, but I am happy with the new outing. Hopefully a Boston appearance will be in the works.
